bludge

'swing the lead' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'move around lennox head' is the wordplay.
'move' becomes 'budge' (to budge is to move slightly).
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'head' indicates taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'lennox' is 'l'.
'budge' placed around 'l' is 'BLUDGE'.

'and' is the link.
